I have a E270 cdi 2003 with ongoing gearbox problems. I had a 2k bill to replace the Torque Converter, now just 3 months later having a vibration coming from the gearbox, is seems to be Intermittent. Just can't put my finger on it but something not right. Gear changes seem too soon when cold, then settles down. My head is in my hands as have a high trim model with 20k of extra's and I feel there's too much to go wrong. I got an engine amber light come up but went away, now a brake services light. I wont get through the winter so am trading the car and getting a Honda CR-V, I really need a car I can depend on again. Have spent over 3k on repairs since bought the car 6 months ago. I miss the over enginering days of W210. I'll just have to cut my loses now. Lets face it, the W211 is a lemon.
Did you get the radiator replaced too? If not, you just end up with the very same problem!
